DA Lodged for Residential Development in Indooroopilly
MEDIA RELEASE
26 July 2022
High-quality residential development planned for Indooroopilly A high-quality residential development is set to transform a neglected site at Central Avenue Indooroopilly under plans lodged with Brisbane City Council. The proposal provides the highly sought-after suburb with an exciting development that is expected to set a new standard of living for the local area.
Designed by multi award-winning architectural practice Rothelowman, local developer TRK Property Group plans to create a diverse range of two and three-bedroom residences aimed at young families eager to move into the area and local residents seeking to downsize and age in place.
The proposal for 140 Central Avenue incorporates 127 residences across two sevenstorey apartment buildings and six two-storey terrace homes.
Included in the project is a pool, gym, sauna, mineral spa, hot and cold spas, roof-top garden, yoga lawn, informal work from home spaces, outdoor dining areas, covered entertaining areas and a children’s play area, and extensive landscaping throughout the 6,000m2 site.
The inclusion of six family-sized terrace homes replaces what could have been a third apartment building.
TRK Property Group Managing Director, Arpan Kohli, said the decision aims to enhance liveability and appeal across the entire site and create increased setbacks and less density on the site than might otherwise have been achieved.
”Our vision for 140 Central Avenue is to deliver an architectural outcome worthy of its premium location that meets the strong demand for high-quality apartment living in the precinct,” Mr Kohli said.
“We’ve assembled an exceptional design and project team, and we’ve put our heart and soul into this project to deliver a unique new offering for the community.”
Rothelowman Principal Duncan Betts said the design of 140 Central Avenue meets Council’s ‘Buildings that Breathe’ guidelines, incorporating high levels of sustainability, landscaping, natural ventilation and resident amenity.
This project will positively contribute to the evolution of Indooroopilly and the desire for people to have the opportunity to live an ecologically responsible lifestyle that prioritises the environment, health and wellness and a connection for people with place,” said Mr Betts.
The project site, currently operating as ‘Forest Lodge’, is in need of renewal with 34 strata-titled residences presently being used for short-term accommodation.
TRK Property Group amalgamated the site through a series of acquisitions over the past two years.
140 Central Avenue is walking distance to Indooroopilly train station and St Peter’s Lutheran College, Brigidine College and Indooroopilly State High School.
All parking will be located off-street, with basement car parks and bicycle stores accessed via Sovereign Street.
The DA lodgement follows extensive community engagement in recent months. Subject to Council approval, the residences are expected to be offered to the market in mid to late 2023.
